1t is with profound regret that the Command
erin. Chief announces the death Of Robert Crit
tenden Newton, Major General commanding
Arkansas State militia, which occurred on the
I'd inst. Major General Newton was ma
tive OF Arkansas, and forty-seven
years OF age. 1t is needless for me to
pronounce eulogium upon the life and
character Of this greit man, further than to
say that his whole life was given to the eleva.
non OF the State that gave him birth. Major
General Newton was possessed OF very kigh
degree Of that rare military tact, spirit and
chivalric bearing which marks the model SOL
der and makes the successful, efficient oficer.
The State of Arkansas will long remember
him in each OF the above capacities, and her
sons even DO honor to his memory. As citi-
zen he stood among the first Of the land and
was universally beloved throughout our
borders And whether as citizen or SOL
der, none have done more to advance the ma
terial and lasting interests OF this great State.
Officers Of the State militia and State guards
will wear the usual badge Of mourning when in
uniform for the period of six months, and ell
military standards will be draped for the same
period.

THE American party" organized in
San Francisco, has some good points in
its platform, coupled with other and in
consistent matter, that viii expose it
to critism and limit its following and
therefore its effectiveness. In adopt
ing resolution that the laws should
be SO amended as to prevent the COM
ing to our shores OF all aliens who are
criminal or paupers, the convention
does not seem to know that such laws
are in existence, and that though
there is difficulty in enforcing them, a
great many undesirable immigrants
are excluded under these provisions.
The new party also proposes a repeal
of the naturalization laws and legisla-
ton requiring all citizens to vote
two things that do not hang well to-
gether. Compulsory voting implies
the necessity of having all men at
tend to their duties as citizens; a re-
fusal to naturalize foreigners would
create constantly growing class OF
aliens who would have no right to
vote and would be quite as obnoxious
on that account as citizens who neg.
lected to do so. The platform, on the
whole, is very crude, and is of public
interest only as it shows the existence
Of feeling that something needs tc
be done in the better regulation oI
immigration and naturalization.
